" North Carolina’s The Delta Drift blend a sound that’s ages old, born out of smoky bars, alcohol soaked floors and flawed lives. On the band’s debut release, Desolate City, The Delta Drift traverses between slow country waltz (‘Don’t Leave the Light On’), boogie (‘Miss You Miss Jenkins’) to fuzzed out guitar rock (Out the Window’) resulting in a healthy dose of rock and country. Lead singer Nick Foltz delivers scratchy, whiskey soaked vocals reminiscent of a young Axl Rose playing in a honky-tonk rock and roll band. All the band members sing, adding a family feel to the cache of sounds on the album, making The Delta Drift seem larger than their four parts. "

" They nail the old school rock and blues style on the head, citing influences like Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Band and Gram Parsons. The Delta Drift has only been playing together as a group for about nine months, but their sound has already coalesced into a self-assured balance that other groups might take years to achieve. "

" In The Delta Drift’s case, the band’s plethora of sound is a plus in that it showcases their range. From honky-tonk to rock ‘n’ roll, The Delta Drift aren’t just the passers-by on a traffic-laden highway, moving from one lane, er, genre to the next without thought. They’re moving with the shifts that are evident in everyday life and in music."
